Virtues OF the Autiphone.

A Yankee clerk in one Of the depart
ments has invented a contriyance called
the autiphone, The thing consists Of a
little diaphragm that can be put IN the
ear, where il is not visible or unpleasant,
and IL shuts out all sounds except tho
words Of person cOnversint lose to one
wearing the phones. This noise OF
wagons, ice cream men and the deviled

Paradise and He'll.

Gan argument has lately been pre-
sented by learned divine to show that
the Garden of Eden was located not far
from Charleston, S. G. As it has been
held that "the other place" which Bob
Ingersoll says does not exist, was near
Paradise, The fsct that Edgefeld is not
far from Charleston is a fact in favor of
the theory."-TFashington Republican.
1t delights us when the Radicals and
Republicans speak of Edgefield as "hell."
For truly Edgefeld has been "hell" to
them and their party in South Carolina.
And we are eternally proud that it is so.
Yes, when we remember Edge6eld's
superb and indomitable grit in the days
of '7G, WE may well say she has been
"hell" to the Republican party in South
Carolina, and thereby more or less
to the party at large. The Washington
Republican could not have afforded us
more joy or greater triumph than by
tho weak little fling which we publish
aboyc.-EdgcfeM Chronicle.

How ssRcflned" Lard Is Made and Sold
Cheaper than the Pure.

CHICAGO, November 2S.-It is report
ed that members of the New York Pro.
duce Exchange are signing memorial
Congress complaining about the adultera-
tion of lard, and asking that legislation
be had compelling manufacturers to
stamp and label their products in such
way that every purchaser will know what
he is buying. Inquiry made among
number of packers in this city to ascertain
if any move of similar character was on
foot in Chicago, disclosed the fact that
many are in favor of such legislation,
and would assist such movement, but
that there is no likelihood of its being
started here.
John G. Hately, of Hately Brothers,
packers and refners, said: ~ certainly
should be very glad to see movement of
that kind in this city, although do not
think that the Chicago people will take
the initiative in it. There can be no
doubt that the trade in pure lard, or that
article which is known in the trade as
prime steam lard, suffered greatly from
the adulterated article. All the packers
make pure lard, which contains nothing
but animal fat. A great deal of this is
sold to the re6ners, who use it in making
their refined lard. This refined article
is the one that all this complaint is about.
It is sold cheaper than the pure lard is
bought by the same firms, which goes to
show that it is not pure. In making this
refined lard the principal ingredient used
is cotton seed oil, and, perhaps beef tai
low. Mutton tallow has been found to
assimilate very poorly with the pure lard.
and is not used much. Now, cotton seed
oil is, perhaps, just as wholesome as lard,
but it is not lard. There is not very
much money in it, even after this ingred-
lent has been added, for it is pretty high
priced. 1t is now worth about 81 cents
pound, while pure lard sells at 7 cents.
1 should think that fully 80 per cent. of
the lard on the market here is of this
refined kind. If there were some law to
compel people to brand this lard at what
it really is, it would reduce the sales of
the stuff and make prices better. A
large quantity of it is made here, but
most of the stocks in Chicago are pure
lard, as only few packers are at the
same time refuers, and the packer neces-
sarily produces pure lard"

Worth q Dozen Sermons.

There is an cight-year old girl in our
town that e1emplifes more faith in her
life than is to be found on the front pews
Of the church, or even amogst the D. D's.
Last Sunday she wished to 60 to church,
but about the time for her to prepare,
her mother said, "You can't go, for it is
cloudy and raining now" The little girl
said: "I'll ask God not TO let it rain"
She retired and prayed to the God of
little children and directly returned to
her mother, saying: II have asked God
not to let it rain, and l know He won't.
Let's so to church," In ashort time the
clouds rolled away, the sun shone out
aud the little girl went to church. That
simple act Of humble trust is worth
dozen wise sermons on the philosophy OF
faith. Carolina Spartan.
